    Roosters to hens ratio

    Not so much. Sick dogs in a kennel are bad. Try working there when a bad batch gets in. Pet food is engineered to result in regularity. Eat your fiber!

    Roosters to hens ratio

    This particular one does deer for hunters (my neighbor referred me to them). I guess beef as well, it sounded like he knows what Kroger buys and the place is not a hole in the wall. According to him it was illegal for him to take chickens. Because of the other meats and how his facility was...

    Roosters to hens ratio

    I like to play on words, and sometimes get snarky. I like you calling them Sebrights, I am not sure why they were renamed, but really how to muddle an issue? Change what words mean what. So I have three Sebrights, one black laced silver, and two black laced gold. Do the bantams mix well with...

    Roosters to hens ratio

    First of all: it is "All y'all". Second: The actual act is more of a bumpity brush rather than as most land bound mammals do... The way to tell if the rooster was successful is the hen will stand up, fluff up, shake up, and then look up....as if to say "Nuthin to see here fella..."

    Roosters to hens ratio

    Ours is named (think Hispanic) "Marco Pollo"...the "Marked Chicken". ROTFL at self... Next are 3 Dominiques, Rocky I, II, and III. Then three Welsumers Hanz, Franz, and Arnold. Two splash Americaunas or easter eggers (likely) are younger by 4 weeks and are not quite as assertive. One black...

    I dont think they considered it a problem. Disposed of the guts and fed the chickens. Gruesome and bad husbandry these days.

    Roosters to hens ratio

    Mom tells stories about her grandma butchering. The rest of the chickens fought over the guts in a major tug of war. She never forgot it... Didn't eat dinner one night either... pshaw.

    Roosters to hens ratio

    i dont know. Guy at the pet store here grew up with a free flock with 60 roos. He said its easy to win. You just throw another bird in the ring. He was about 20 years old. Go figure.

    Roosters to hens ratio

    Upstate new York 3 years ago or so they arrested 42 Hispanic men in our neighbor's (2 farms up the road) barn for cockfighting and gambling. The poor amish man who needed to finish paying for his new barn sent his daughter to the neighbor's to call the cops when he found out what they were...

    Roosters to hens ratio

    I think they are like African Cichlid's. If you have enough they are all distracted and nobody gets hurt. One place to hide or "own", and you will have only one left. If you have just two, you will end up with one.
